Well finally I have my beast back with a new and improved face lift ; The SL 65 AMG Bumper and the Veloce Performance ECU and TCU Tune with an upgraded Pulley. I also just purchased the Johnson IC pump for both my CL and SL what do U all think???? Ranger Out!

Charles:

I am glad that we got the ECU/TCU on track. If you think it runs good now.... just wait when the pulley arrives!

Looks good. Would go quicker with more appropriate wheels though

BTW, Hope you use the LX470 properly and take her into the wild. That thing can hang with Range Rovers and G500s off road.

600hp from ECU/TCU and pulley....

Those claims are a lot higher then the other ECU/pulley kits out there...

Dynos?

Glad you got your ride back.
Now be careful with that damn ESP Button. Leave it ON.
That yellow triangle is there for a reason. Caution.

Murtaza has a point. 600HP is a little high for a 2003.
550HP is real with Pully/ECU/TCU and Throttle Body.

I Like the SL65 Front end .

I think Charles is giving an estimate. We are pretty close though..... One of our California clients with the same set up as Charles, told us he dyno'd at 469 hp/491 lbft @ the wheels. That equates to ~585/620 @ the crank. They also did a 1/4 mile run at the dyno, and it came out at 11.3! If he even came close to that at the track, that would be very cool. That car runs on 91 octane and Charles probably uses 93, so he might be right.

What makes me happy is seeing that he enjoying his car and our work!

You Know I can not figure out for the life of me how to post a series of pics as my sig??? WTF Over! I am assuming all of that is to be done by me going to the user Icon and editing my aviator and sig and profile pics Hmmmm.

Thanks a Million Dino I will call U some time I have a few questions about redlining my gears, is it safe or am I at risk of burning up my trans? I have to get used to the new beastly feel that I now have as opposed to what I used to have.

charles pearson

U are correct but for what I like to do on the interstate I have enough to keep many predators at bay. As for the LX-470 Bro I love that SUV and ur correct it can run with the Range Rovers it is the least problematic vehicle that I own, LOL that Pearl White is a Hell of a color. No I really don't use it off roading like it was designed to do, U know the crazy thing is that when I was in Afghanistan in 2003 Haji had the same Lexus hot doggin it in the mountainous terrain while drinking their cheap nasty A _ _ Tea LOL. That was all it took for me to come home and buy me a LX-470.

Well let me rephrase myself, anywere from 590hp to 600hp I am also using the Green filter Air filter set up along with 93 octane fuel so I could be wrong but I'm thinking those two alone will give me an extra 15 to 20hp what do U think?

charles pearson

LMAO, Thank You bro, well people are entitled to their opinions I guess all I know is that from the way it used to run and the way that she runs now is like "who unleashed the fury with a fresh can of whoop A _ _." I will say this, I definitely need to upgrade my brakes she doesn't want to stop! But I truly believe she's running anywere fro 590 to 600hp plus or minus a couple of horses lol.

Don't forget that we are a Brembo dealer too!

All this talk about goin' fast is getting me antsy for a bit of fun! I just finished doing a major on the SL55 w/a fresh set of spark plugs (that was a painful process!), so I think it's time to shuffle some cars around and have some fun!

charles pearson

I'll more than likely let Veloce performance do my brake upgrade as well, the only issue i have is that having front Brembo calibers and rear AMG calibers doesn't that look kinda crazy??

Look at the fat 4 1/2 inch lip dude.
